If the work done by a battery to move a unit charge through the battery from one terminal to the other is doubled, what is the e
1 answer:
The emf is doubled
Explanation:
The work done by a battery to move a unit charge through the battery from one terminal to the other is equal to the change in electric potential energy of the charge, therefore it can be written as
where
q is the charge
is the potential difference through which the charge has been moved
Since the charge is moving through the battery, this means that the potential difference is equal to the emf of the battery , therefore
(1)
In this problem, we are told that the work done by the battery is doubled, so
From eq.(1), we see that the emf of the battery is proportional to the work done: therefore, since the work doubles, the battery's emf doubles as well.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the change in length in proportion to the area and volume. We will define the states of the lengths in their final and initial state and later with the given relationship, we will extrapolate these measures to the area and volume
The initial measures,
(Surface of a Cube)
The final measures
Given,
Now applying the same relation we have that
The relation with volume would be
Volume of the cube change by a factor of 2.83
